It's a beeautiful day, isn't it? :)
Did you know that May Day will be here in a little over a week?
I know for May Day baskets of flowers are usually given
and left at the door {anonymously} for someone special to find.
Why not think outside of the box. . .
and give a little mug gift set with a pretty doily flower :)
Set this sweet mug at someones door for a delightful surprise.

The cheerful yellow mug is in the shape of a beehive

which is perfect for a bee theme gift.

I filled the mug with tissue paper

and then added Camomile, Honey and Vanilla Tea.

I also slipped in some Burt's Bees lip balm and lip shimmer.

I thought this saying "Be Yourself"

was perfect for the bee theme so I applied it to a white paper doily.

I attached a fabric-wrapped wire stem to the back of the doily

which created a sweet little flower :)

Here is the back of the doily. . .

Have you seen those pretty knitted/crocheted mug cozies?

Well, I think they are simply lovely, but . . . I can't knit. . . or crochet

Thank you so much, lovely friends, for participating in another Roses of Inspiration.
I thoroughly enjoy seeing the unique inspiration that you share from your blog
and I am truly honored and thrilled to have you link up.

At each party I get several women that link up from a blogging platform other than blogger
and I have noticed when I leave a comment it's not going through.
I want to apologize for this and let you know that I am working on finding out what the issue is.
Please know that if you "technically" do not hear from me that I am still visiting you.
Lord-willing, I will the problem resolved as soon as possible
since one of the joys about this party is leaving each one of you comments :)

Again, thank you for sharing with Roses of Inspiration.
Now onto the party. . .

All of you share the loveliest posts and you make it very difficult
to narrow the choices down to only a few.

. . . . . .The Home. . . . . .

“I believe that a godly home is a foretaste of heaven. Our homes, imperfect as they are, must be a haven from the chaos outside. They should be a reflection of our eternal home, where troubled souls find peace, weary hearts find rest, hungry bodies find refreshment, lonely pilgrims find communion, and wounded spirits find compassion.” -Jani Ortlund
